Anti-gov't protests continue as Lee marks 100th day in office

SEOUL, South Korea - Defying rain, South Koreans stage a protest in the neighborhood of Seoul city hall on June 3 against government policy on imports of U.S. beef, a day on which President Lee Myung Bak marked his 100th day in office with his approval rating plummeting to less than 20 percent. The government's decision to relax rules on the import of American beef has triggered waves of antigovernment protests by Koreans wary of mad cow disease.
